Looking for 4 lug nuts, factory type. I removed my lug locks the hard way and the stealership wants $45 for 4 lug nuts to replace the locks with. Driving on four lugs each tire right now. Got any spares lying around? Let me know.

It's time to sell. I need a truck bad and can't afford to have another vehicle. Pearl white with no major problems. Typical door dimples on the side (3 total I think) and the roller coaster rear window seal (which doesn't leak). MSD plug wires, new battery, LMS FPR, LMS MAF and cold air box...

I'm interested in changing out my unit for the 96 model if someone has one for sale. Mine has a crack in just the max button on the left but otherwise in great shape. I just like the 96 model's appearance better. Also looking for a grey bezel for the EATC. The last owner glued a CD changer...

4th one got lost at the rechrome shop. Ended up powdercoating to silver metallic. Can't use the chrome ones now. $18.75 new each from FLM. Make me a reasonable offer. Still in plastic bags from FLM.

OK, as some might know from my last post, I got a set of directionals from DSinclair. After looking at them, I thought I'd like the chrome redone, since they were east coast wheels. Well, I sent them to Santa Ana plating in So-Cal and they said the metal was too porous to take a new chrome job...

I want to change the colors a bit inside the ride. Maybe re-color all the door and panel insets with an aluminum brushed look or same color as the outside (tri coat pearl). Maybe have the seats inset replaced with black suede, get some massager parts and heat installed while I have the seat...

I was watching a show today on the boob toob and there was a custom shop in So Cal that pimped this car out with Lamborghini doors. Original car doors with the Lambo door hinge assembly. WHAT IF....we could do this to our cars? I am giving it some serious thought. I know the doors are a...

Still trying to hunt down a demon in the mill. A little stumble on cold acceleration. Checked the throttle body and cleaned it. Went to check the spark plugs and ripped a wire right outta the boot. Yes, I was holding the boot, not the wire. So now I'm trying to buy wires for the Linkin...

Ran the car on the dyno the other day. I have mixed revues about the numbers. As listed in my profile, I have LT headers, 2 1/2" pipes all the way back on a single X, Dennis chip, 160 degree thermostat, 80 mm MAF, adjustable FPR. Bone stock, I ran 210 hp at best and 240 lb/ft of torque. Now...

OK, so I've seen some people posting info about trying to find someone to chrome plate some things for them including wheels. I've done some looking and found a company inCalifornia that has by far the best price I've seen. Go to [www.santaanaplating.com] and check them out. I am sending my...

I have the 93 intake and TB. I was wondering if there is a larger TB to be installed or am I stuck with this one? Is there any performance gains to be had by changing it if there is a bigger one?

Hey all, just got a new (to me) set of chrome directionals for my 93. But some of the center caps are shot. I need two of them replaced for sure. Road salt death. Anyway, does anyone have a good connection for some immaculate ones for sale? I'm curious if Geno's for the Cobra wheels will...

I've noticed many models of brands of cars. I'm a car nut. Don't fault me. One thing I have noticed is that many manufacturers pick different caliper positioning on their brake assemblies. For instance ours are to the front of the rotor and towards the top. I've seen some straight to the...

I replied to a different post about this subject and found no answer....So I'll post it as a question for all. I did the sensor lowering. I did the back by the instructions listed. I did the front differently, but can't get it lower than it currently is since the sensor is completely...

Does anyone have a set for sale? Tires not needed. I'll just put mine on them. Just curious. I want to stay stock, but I'm tired of the lacy spokes. Maybe I can chrome them to improve the looks, but I really like the directionals.

How do I program it to run on the current frequency without paying the dealership to do it? I've been told it can be done but the dealership won't give me the secret handshake to do this on my own. What do I do? The one I got doesn't have the Lincoln emblem etched in it, but it has all the...

...but I don't know how hard it is to get it out with the aftermarket headers. I got the full on exhaust swap and am planning to swap the tranny, driveshaft, rear gears when I return and don't know how hard it is to get all this out. Will I have to loosen or remove the headers or will it slide...

I need an engine control computer or Powertrain Control Module. I have a 93 Mk 8 with computer code W3Z2. Any help is appreciated. inbox me or email to hotrodlinkin93@cox.net

Code 225 for the Actron FLM tester. Knock sensor not detected during diagnostic run test. Something to that effect. Timing does fluctuate, and I think this might be why my O2 sensors "supposedly" went out. Just changed them the other day and it runs better, but it still hesitates...

I guess it's my turn to work out a gremlin. The past week or two my car has a fairly rough idle with noticeable deflection in the tachometer needle. In "D" it idles at 600 RPM or so. I've done a base timing test and I see the mark bounce anywhere from 4 degrees BTDC to 12 degrees. It...
